Attacking with F is broken after the recent update


loganpea
  • Fixed

As of update 505171, the attack animation will wait to completely finish before being able to attack again while holding f to attack, resulting in a really slow attack speed. This occurs with lag compensation off, but it still slightly slows down attacking even with it on.


Steps to Reproduce

Use F or Ctrl + F to attack mobs.

User Feedback


A developer has marked this issue as fixed. This means that the issue has been addressed in the current development build and will likely be in the next update.

I saw in the notes for the hotfix said that it fixed an "issue" with auto attacking but actually I thought this was a feature and was very excited about it. Unfortunately, not only was it taken away, but broke attacking in the process :(

Klei, if you see this comment please bring back auto-attacking on click! <3

I have the same problem whenever holding F or the mouse button while attacking. If I press F repeatedly or click the mouse repeatedly, the attack speed turns to normal, but right now just holding the button doesnt work anymore

I have this problem on my dedicated server.

When using key ‘F’ or 'Ctrl + F' to attack, the attack speed is very slow.

When ‘Ctrl + mouse button’ is used to attack, it behaves a bit better.

However,I have tested the very same cluster on local and it doesn't appear when I'm the host server.

after doing some asking around it seems this only happens if you have lag compensation set to none. attacks seem normal with lag comp set to predictive. still cringe tho i hate playing with lag comp

Okay I thought I was the only one.. I even turned off all my mods and reset all my binds and it's still happening. I have to furiously press F just to fight. Frustrating.

Beta has a half fix for it. Guess Klie care more about new beta content than fixing the game.
But funny thing, that fix don't work well. It's not back as it used to be. Its like they applied a bad band-aid

Same bug happens to me and i  think it was my fault because of im kinda new to the game, i have 60 hours and idk why but it feels like combat was weird in comparation to the other patch, attack feels so slow to do anything :(

That's probably the reason why that fix is BETA only for now

I'm having the same problem. Shortly after the update, the F and CTRL+F just stopped responding. I hope this issue resolves soon as I can't fight back against mobs now

Yep.  Game is unplayable since the last update.  How this was able to slip through the cracks is mind boggling.  I cannot find any word from Klei since the weekend.  So, um, refunds anyone?
